shortnameToImage($str)

convert shortnames to images

If you've chosen to unify your inputted text so that it contains only shortnames then this is the function (or its matching Javascript function) you will want to use to convert the shortnames images when displaying it to the client.

Feel free to enter other shortnames in the input below to test the conversion process. For a complete list of emoji and their shortnames check out emoji.codes.

Note: Once you start dealing with native unicode characters server side, it's important to ensure that your web stack is set up to handle UTF-8 character encoding. That is outside of the scope of our demos, but a quick Google Search will guide you in the right direction.
